OK, hope not to sound too bitter, but after the way Mod- (Rat-face)- ic left us, I find it hard to have support for his team. Acted like a total twat, just like Berba, for those who remember.

Couple of things about the set up. Dele needs to play further up.to help supply Kane, who also needs to play further up.

Sterling, tries his heart out but his brain ceases to function when he does all that work to get in a striking position. I can see what he brings But there's been no end product. He's taking positions on the pitch I want Kane in.

Play with 1 striker in kane, who plays higher up, drop sterling and have an additional midfielder on to play where Dele was, who you've moved further up?

Bring in rose for young. But really, it's just a few tweaks.

Pickford, trippier and Maguire were top notch today.

We could have 8 players playing in that final, think about that for a second
We won't have a full team until mid September...

Really going to need the non-WC players to step up in August.

And, I hope Southgate goes easy on the WC players during the first international break...

I'm not sure we have enough to win it. Let's be fair we haven't played anyone with real quality yet. But whatever we end up with it's exceeded my expectations and made me interested in England again

who has "real quality"? The traditional powers are all out or didnt qualify. I think Belgium and France are both better but they arent unbeatable.
